Chapter 180 Mythical Civilization, Millennium Emperor

Every thousand-year civilization is not a complete thousand years.

Rather, a thousand years after the last civilization was destroyed, the monsters in the fog would launch an attack. The resistance period could last from several years to several decades, and this period of time was also counted as part of the millennium of civilization.

Chi Ping continued reading along with the translation. The inscription used the life of this great emperor as a clue, linking together two thousand-year catastrophes.

After being promoted to S-level, this emperor used some special means to live for more than a thousand years, spanning the entire mythological civilization.

Ikehira skipped over the complex arias and tedious narratives and summarized them.

The emperor was called, and was born into a human community that worshipped flying birds. He was a survivor of the great catastrophe of the last thousand years.

There are some differences between human communities and tribes.

Because the community stood on the ruins of the previous civilization, they inherited some of the technological products of the previous civilization and also developed their own totem worship.

Totem worship was particularly widespread, especially at the beginning of civilization.

Having witnessed the tragic plight of mankind during the catastrophe, their determination to resist the catastrophe is particularly strong.

To this end, he elaborated on his views many times in the inscription.

War is necessary, and only war can unite all mankind.

Instead of having multiple countries coexisting, it is better for one country to achieve unification!
Rather than causing long-term wars among multiple countries, it is better to use drastic measures to make people feel severe pain once and for all.

After he was promoted to S-rank, there were two paths before him.

The first is to guide ethnic groups to embrace civilization and develop science and technology.

The second is to continue totem worship, deify the S-level self, and make himself a god worshipped by the tribe.

But in reality, there is only one way.

To achieve the unification of all mankind, one must establish absolute authority. That is, become the only God!

So, he killed another S-class of his time and embarked on the path of military expansion.

But pain is the catalyst for power. In the brutal war, countless people awakened their abilities and became rebels.

The more brutal the massacre, the more people with special abilities will be born, and the more people will join the resistance. And the more people resist, the faster the butcher knife will be swung!

Although there were also capable people who came to join him, they found that the treatment of their subordinates was extremely harsh, and not many of them could stay for a long time.

When unification was completed, imperial ideological education was implemented for all citizens.

But it was already the 919th year of the Mythological Calendar, and there was no time to train S-level people for the empire.

Soon, they all fell into the hands of the monsters.

The empire's sharp sword pointing to the sky was broken.

Like the civilization of the previous thousand years, it was submerged in the flood of monsters.

And now, the tower in the distance that Chi Ping saw was the broken sword of the empire.

It is a resistance and anger that has lasted for thousands of years.

Every millennial civilization has been searching for ways to resist the millennial catastrophe, including Li Jikun and the oldest S-level Origin.

But the cost of every trial and error is the entire human civilization.

So, in the myths that have been passed down from the last millennium, it is the tyrants.

Actually, it’s not wrong, but if it succeeds, it’s a different story.

But when it comes to right and wrong, Chi Ping still needs to think carefully before making a judgment.

At the end of the inscription, there are two lines of calligraphy in flamboyant style, which are the famous sayings of the emperor translated by Tuotu:

"Let all sins be upon me, so that my descendants and my people will never again suffer from great calamities."

Finally, there is TuoTu’s evaluation.

"The sin is the fault of one man, but his merit will be passed down through generations. Unfortunately, his merit fell short at the last moment."

Seeing this, Ikehira's [Ruins Traveler] was triggered again.

[You have arrived at the ruins of a mythical civilization. After the event, your ability to explore the ruins will be greatly improved.]

After reading it, Chi Ping glanced around again.

As far as the eye could see, the land was desolate. Wei San was gazing at the Broken Sword Tower in the distance, lost in thought.

Le Bai found a hollow plant rhizome from somewhere and was drinking the nectar from some kind of flower.

Chi Ping threw away the plant roots next to Le Bai's mouth.

"Hey~ What are you doing!" Le Bai was a little angry.

"You want to eat a little of everything? Do you know where this is?" Chi Ping frowned and scolded her.

Le Bai turned his head away, not wanting to pay any attention to Chi Ping.

But in the current situation, Chi Ping really didn't know which direction to go to find the location of the mastermind behind the incident.

At this moment, a voice came from a distance:
"what!!!!!!"

"Help, help, help!" "I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

The sound came from a distance, sometimes intermittently.

Ikehira focused his eyes and saw several black spots flying towards him beyond the skyline.

There was also a black spot running wildly on the ground. It looked like it would be caught up by the black spot in the sky soon.

"Chi Ping." Le Bai didn't want to pay attention to Chi Ping, but he saw a very strange scene: "That person looks like you."

In fact, Chi Ping also saw that the one being hunted did look a lot like him.

Is it 03?
The one representing the body among the Ten-Faced Gods divided himself into five parts for training in order to avoid being hunted by the soul.

Each one looks 50%, 60%, or even 70% or 80% similar.

Their names are Zero One, Zero Two, Zero Three, Zero Four (Chi Ping) and Wu Batian.

Among them, Zero One and Zero Two were captured by souls.

So, Chi Ping took a look at the guy who was running away, it should be Ling San, right?

Why is he here?

As he was thinking, Ling San and the people chasing him were getting closer and closer.

Only then did Chi Ping see clearly that the ones chasing Ling San were six humanoid locusts riding on giant locusts.

It's a bit awkward, but this is indeed the situation.

And when Chi Ping saw them, they also saw Chi Ping and his group.

The fleeing Ling San's eyes lit up, and he adjusted his escape direction, rushing towards him like a super-chi Ping.

"Are you Zero Four or Wu Batian? Save me!"

Reizo yelled, and this made Ikehira stunned for a moment.

Obviously, the other party is definitely not Zero Three, Zero Three knows me. Then it must be Zero One or Zero Two. Did this guy escape from the soul?
"Warden." Wei San called Chi Ping, asking him whether he wanted to take action.

Chi Ping nodded, and then Wei San disappeared.

The guy who was trying to escape ran all the way and finally reached Chi Ping.

He braked suddenly and failed to stop, and was about to fall on Chi Ping.

Chi Ping slightly turned sideways, and the guy fell to the ground.

"Are you Zero One or Zero Two?" Ikehira asked.

"Zero Two, what about you?" Zero Two asked.

"Chi Ping." When Chi Ping answered like this, Ling Er already knew it because Lao Wu would report the name "Wu Batian".

"You changed your name too?" Ling Er asked, but now was not the time to focus on that: "Run! I just escaped from the white pigs!"

White pig is the nickname they give to the soul.

"He's here too?" Chi Ping asked.

"Of course!" Ling Er said, and tried to pull Ikehira away quickly.

He tugged at Chi Ping's sleeve, but the latter didn't move.

Ling Er increased his strength and pulled again, but still couldn't move it.

Eh?
Logically speaking, this shouldn't happen. The strength of these people should be about the same. It shouldn't be the case that one person is pulling the other with all his strength while the other remains motionless.

"What are you doing?" Chi Ping asked.

"Run for your life!" Ling Er's voice rose eight octaves. The sweat running down his temples had not yet dried, the panic on his face had not faded, and his whole body still looked in a mess.

"Is anyone pursuing you?" Chi Ping asked again.

"How come there's no—" Ling Er turned around while speaking, and saw that the six pairs of locust soldiers behind him had disappeared.

That's not right. How could there be so many big bugs?
Then, Zero Two stretched his neck and looked into the distance.

The locusts' corpses were buried in the weeds, and their color was yellow-green, so it was difficult to identify them unless you got close.

In addition, Ling Er never thought that six pairs of locust soldiers could be wiped out. He kept looking into the distance, thinking that the locusts had fallen behind.

Until Wei San threw all six tactical backpacks on the ground and said:

"The things inside are basically the same as those outside. The writing is the same. This must be occupied by later people, not the remnants of the previous civilization."

Ling Er looked at Wei San, and a somewhat exaggerated idea emerged in his mind.

He brought back six backpacks by himself.

He can still succeed against six pairs of locusts at once.

This guy,
Could it be——

A thief?
